No abuse reports filed yet — this domain is waiting for the next cycle of our automated abuse-reporter. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- First detected: 2026-07-27 18:23:10 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) Last verified: 2026-07-28 16:20:21 UTC Current status: ACTIVE / observable ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-07-27 18:24:19 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] Is paypal-latam.com a banking phishing site? Analysis of paypal-latam.com shows a domain registered through MarkMonitor Inc., a registrar commonly used by legitimate brands but not a guarantee of authenticity. The domain is currently active and returns an HTTP 301 status, indicating a permanent redirect, though the target location has not been disclosed. DNS resolution uses ns1-pchnet.paypal.com, ns2-pchnet.paypal.com, and pdns100.ultradns.com, mixing PayPal‑associated nameservers with an UltraDNS server, a configuration that can be leveraged for credential‑stealing infrastructure or may reflect a misconfiguration. The domain appears on one security blocklist and has been explicitly blocked by the PhishDestroy service, confirming that at least one anti‑phishing vendor has identified it as malicious. A VirusTotal scan involving 91 antivirus and URL‑reputation engines reported no detections, but the lack of a positive match does not equate to safety; many phishing sites evade signature‑based detection. No additional data such as SSL certificate details, page title, OTX references, or hosting IP address is available, leaving the exact phishing delivery mechanism and payload unknown. Defenders should continue to deny network access to paypal-latam.com, add it to URL filtering and DNS sinkhole rules, and monitor for any new indicators that may emerge from threat‑intel feeds. Users should be reminded to verify PayPal URLs carefully and avoid entering credentials on unsolicited pages, especially those referenced in unsolicited communications. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- TLS cert SHA-256: 6e107db3ac75cc896b0584c8c4e1361ef49d57e5ed8d898473067b8c4360aa50 ## SCORING METHODOLOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------- Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (operator takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/paypal-latam.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=paypal-latam.com Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: independent open-source threat-intelligence platform.
